"Women, they have minds, and they have souls, as well as just hearts. And they’ve got ambition, and they’ve got talent, as well as just beauty. I’m so sick of people saying that love is all a woman is fit for.”

― Louisa May Alcott, Little Women


You promised you would stop

the yelling and alcohol you drank till the very last drop

But here you are

Still choosing your priorities over us

We tried to let you in but now i’ve had enough

It is time for you to go
